Of course there would be a retraction:

Victoria Beckham has revealed that she does read books - she just does not often finish them.

"I always start them, get distracted, and never seem to get the time to finish them - I'm sure all mothers with three boys know what I mean," she said.

The celebrity was responding to recent media reports that she has never read a book.

Or, for all we know, she just puts every book to the 50-page rule and they fail miserably. Right? Right?
